A Poet Walks Into a Bar . . .

*strolls in, flicks rain-wet hair off face, heads for bar*

vodka, please, on the rocks, twist of lime

*slides off the dance floor and onto a stool near-by*

Same, but mixed with Coke, please...so, rain is everywhere tonight, eh? Been pretty wet 'round my neighborhood as well...How's it goin'?

*clinks glasses - takes a sip*

don't you love the rain at night?

 

[butters]

*wonders where her favourite barman has got to*

anyone seen harry? the place isn't the same without him.

*shares the toast*

As long as it's not torrential, I love the rain pretty much anytime. But especially at night. Changes the timbre of the whole thing.

As for Harry, nope...think I saw a post from yesterday elsewhere...maybe he's stocking up in the back?

rain at night's bordering on magical, if you've the time to enjoy it. it does all this wonderful stuff with light and - well, yeah. *smiles*

care to put something a little slow, a little easy on the jukebox?

Sure...*inspects the list and selects one to play*

May I have this dance? *extending a hand*

perfect

it'd be a pleasure, thankyou *takes remec's hand and follows his lead*

just how tall are you? *sighs* it's nice to dance with a man's arms around me, feeling the music

A little over 6'2" (almost 188 cm if metric is better) when I remember my posture, but I tend to slouch just a little bit...although, something about having a woman in my arms that makes me less likely to do that...*smiles*

And you? *taking an appraising look over the rim of his glasses*

*looks up* i'm 5'5" and i can hear your heart beating when i rest my head on your chest. you're warm. the rain left me a little chilled. *smiles*

Well, we can't very well have that, can we? *drawing you further within his embrace* I actually have been accused of having my own energy source...I tend to be a bit of a furnace even in the coldest of weather. Are you merely chilled or do we need to find you a towel and dry clothes? (Not that I have any ulterior motives here, mind you. )

*sways slow with the beat, low with the beat* love these lyrics.

just don't stop dancin', hold me close, you're warming me up just fine. you dance well . . . supple. what's that lovely smell? you smell good.

*chuckling lightly*
To be honest...I don't think it has a name. Just a generic aftershave I use even though I just trim and shape the beard and rarely go down to the skin...brisk and spicy and reacted well to my skin, so I kept it around...

*bending over just enough to hold you close without picking you up, idly toying with your damp hair*
Glad you like the song...wasn't sure what your tastes were, and I tend to be oddly eclectic when it comes to music

*wonders what it'd be like, being picked up.... bites lip*

yes, i'm really getting quite warmed up. *pink cheeks*
my tastes are diverse. i find eclectic interesting, and i'm not averse to trying out something new.

ah listen, i think that song's just about done.
shame. really

Well, shall we play something a little more uptempo then? I came across thisfrom an AMV I saw at an anime convention several years ago and have a whole playlist of the performer. (Even though I don't actually know anything she is saying/singing.)

*smiling and softly brushing the back of my hand along one cheek*
I think you might be right about getting warmed up.

ah, perhaps another night, another day - i simply love to dance, and it's even more fun with someone else. perhaps angie, annie, tess, champers and some of the other guys might join us and kick off their shoes, embrace the pleasures.

*sigh* thankyou. it was lovely.

*disengages from your hold, goes to the bar and collects my things, blows a kiss on the way out into the rainy night.*

 

[UnderYourSpell]

Watches silently from my dark corner

 

[GuiltyPleasure]

puts down bucket, dunks mop, swabs floor.

 

[HarryHill]

*peeks out of the stock room at the clatter, smiles, goes back to inventory*

 

[GuiltyPleasure]

sees HH, smiles and continues to empties the ashtrays....filthy habit.

 

[butters]

*enters the bar, notices the enigmatic pixie-faced beauty sitting all alone at a corner table, the fresh scent of pine and the slightly flushed, smiling red-headed barmaid*

ah, people! this might be an interesting night

anyone serving, or should i help myself?

what'll you have?
something hot n buttered for a rainy day?

 

[butters]

hello

something dark and bittersweet, maybe - dark rum . . . would rum and cointreau go together, with something to blend them, maybe?

my hands are cold

 

[GuiltyPleasure]

Ooops - too late.

stashes cleaning stuff and buggers off

 

[butters]

who's the shady lady in the corner over there, harry? and great choice of barmaid customers will love her flaming locks and freckles.
